Screen Seven – Katyn
Monday 10/05/2010 8pm Tickets : £5 /£3.50 conc
In 1940, thousands of Polish Army officers were massacred by Soviet secret police in the forests of Katyń. A murky war crime, it’s illuminated by veteran master Andrzej Wajda’s searching, powerful drama.
Katyn arrives here as a hotly anticipated film, previewed at Bradford International Film Festival in March.
“Katyn is bravura film-making. Wajda is in his 80s, but he hasn’t lost his knack for marshalling crowds, choreographing elaborate set-pieces, staging chases and cranking up the emotions.” – Geoffrey Macnab, The Guardian
